Chemistry 112 - Ozone to Oilspills - is an introductory chemistry course for non-science majors offered by Professor Tom Spiro at Princeton University. The class approaches chemistry through the study of environmental topics.

Chemistry 112  is a collaborative project between Ozone to Oilspills, the Princeton Materials Institute and the Center for Teaching and Learning at Princeton University, and the Princeton, West Windsor/Plainsboro, Trenton and Ewing School districts. The Chemistry 112 students construct Web Pages tailored to the needs of individual middle school classes. The objective is to give middle school students an active learning environment while exposing Chemistry 112 students to teaching, because teaching is the best way to learn.
